Niklas Koehler is a fighter pilot in the Red Hessian Army. He was born on October 8th, 795 A.S on Planet Stuttgart. He joined the Red Hessians in 815 and is now a strong believer in the revolution and freedom of Rheinland from its facist government.

Early Life

Niklas was born on Planet Stuttgart in 795 A.S and was an only child. He was son to Albert Koehler and Danice Brayer. Unfortunately, when Niklas was at around the age of 4 he became lost while wandering the streets of Stuttgart. It was not known at the time, but Niklas had a memory disorder which was never fixed until he was 6.

He was taken in by a man by the name of Fredrick Akkerman who worked for the local police force on Stuttgart. By the time Niklas regained his former strength from being out in the cold, he could not remember where he had come from (it is believed it was his first time outside the house without taking a subway) and by the time the man took him outside to look for his old residence, he had forgotten his parents faces. The memory disorder affected his language capability's as well, making the first part of school life difficult. The man who had taken him in decided to take him in, preferring that than having him sent to an orphanage. Today Niklas hopes to find his parents on Stuttgart, but not knowing much about the man who took him in- or if his name is actually his this has been a near impossible task. Niklas does not recall having told the officer his name, although it is possible he might have said it unknowingly. Niklas was sent to a public school in Stuttgart with over 3000 pupils on register. In his first year he struggled immensely, and it was not until his second year at school his neural defect was discovered. He had an implant installed by Kruger scientists which re-enabled his memory functions.

Despite being at the same par as the other students, Niklas was poor at his school work and was teased by other childeran. In his later years at school he started hitting back against his oppressors. One day in particular he burnt one of his classmates faces in Science scarring them for life. He eventually dropped out of school and left the home of the Fredrick Akkerman.

Later Years

Niklas Koehler then spent a few months on the streets of Stuttgart. Utterly unsatisfied he decided to leave the planet and stowed away on a Civilian Transport. The Transport was bound for Vierlande Prison in Hamburg. Dissapointed with his luck he stayed in the shadows for a few weeks. He met with a few of the prisoners on occasion who promised to keep his presence a secret. During his time in the prison, Niklas learn't alot about the structure of the criminal underworld- the various factions, rebel groups ect. He learn't more about the Rheinland government too and how they had failed the people of Rheinland. Niklas was still not outwardly opposed to the military yet. He took a mutual stance when discussing with prisoners.

It seemes that one day that all changed. While venturing into the cell blocks and hiding there he saw a LWB prisoner being beaten by military gaurds. Infuriated he leaped out and attacked the gaurds. The prisoner thanked him and took his chance to escape. He convinced Niklas that he was now a wanted man and that they would imprison him for what he did too he followed the man. They stealthily smuggled themselves onboard a Humpback and managed to escape to Kreuzburg Depot, New Berlin.


During his stay on with the Junkers on Kreuzburg he contemplated the possibility of joining one of the Rheinland unlawful factions. Rheinland was corrupt, it was its government that was corrupt and broken. The people of Rheinland needed to stand up against the corporations that exploit them everyday of their lives. Then one day at the age of 20 he set out not as a Rheinland Citizen, but as a hopefull for the Red Hessian Army.

The Red Hessians

Following whispers he heard from pilots in the Kreuzberg bar, he headed to the south of New Berlin in a battered CSV. Scouting the asteroid field for hours he finally found an anomoly that would lead him to the Dresden system. Ignoring all protocal he used it and discovered the Hessian base of operations- Vogtland. He then was taken in by the Red Hessians, who were eager to accept fellow revolutionarys. Niklas was equiped with a Dagger light fighter and compleated his initial training with (deceased) Herr Stieder. Niklas was adiment he had found the life he was looking for. And says he "couldn't have asked for anything better".

Current Information

Two years past and Niklas became a Luetnant in the Red Hessian Army. He now operated in the Omega systems and Rheinland. Niklas's goals are to aid in the overthrow of the Rheinland government, and perhaps find his long lost parents.
